I hate the Brazilian tortoise, it s so ugly when it grows up, I want to throw it away, what to do

Brazilian tortoises that are not kept can be given away, but they should never be released.

Turtles in captivity tend to be dependent on feeding, making it difficult to forage in the wild, and the outside temperature is unstable, which can cause them to die.

Moreover, the western turtle is an alien species, so it is very dangerous to release it into the wild, due to the lack of natural enemies, it is very likely to cause the invasion of alien species and destroy the local ecological balance.

Habits:

The Brazilian turtle is an aquatic turtle, with strong adaptability to the environment, likes to be quiet and afraid of noise, likes to be clean and afraid of dirty, likes warmth, and often crawls on the shore to dry its back in the windy and sunny weather. Lively, active, and timid. Its activity varies with the change of ambient temperature, the optimal temperature is 20-30 degrees, the temperature drops below 14 degrees Celsius, stops feeding, and enters hibernation when it drops below 11 degrees.

Feeding habits:

Scraps and eggs, etc. It also consumes plant-based feeds, such as rice, wheat flour, soybean cakes, melons, fruits, vegetables, etc. More resistant to hunger. The baby Brazilian turtle is very edible and should be fed on time every day.

Growth characteristics:

The growth rate of the turtle is relatively fast, it is reported that the juvenile turtle weighing 6 grams, raised in a water body stable at 30 degrees for 38 days, can weigh up to 50 60 grams, transferred to the outdoor natural water body in early May for breeding, to the end of November, the general weight reaches more than 350 grams, by the end of October of the following year, the general individual can reach about 750 grams.

The Brazilian tortoise in LZ is still in the adaptation period. Usually spend more time near it, you can read a book or look out the window, try not to look at it. It will poke out its little head and look at you tentatively.

Over time, the courage grows. Call it by its name more and it will know you're calling it later. Also, pay attention to look down less on it and more on it; Don't mess with it; Don't make noise around it, the turtle likes to be quiet, and if it's too noisy, it will be frightened.

Many people don't know about the Brazilian tortoise.

It also has a temper, and if it doesn't like you, it will give you a look like a human being. As a host, it is necessary to be able to discern whether you hate yourself by the behavior of the Brazilian tortoise. In this way, you can correct your behavior and make the Brazilian turtle like you as the owner.

If you can't get the favor of it and make him like it, you can easily get bitten when you pet it.

What are the manifestations of Brazilian tortoises hating their owners?

1. Tearing indiscriminately

If the Brazilian turtle bites indiscriminately, and even bites the owner, this is the Brazilian turtle hates the owner and reminds the owner not to approach, so it needs to be put into the water to raise, so that the Brazilian turtle will relax its vigilance against you.

2. Retract into the shell

When the Brazilian turtle hates its owner, its limbs, head, and tail will retract into the shell, and it will ignore the owner.

3. Gradually move away

When the Brazilian turtle sees you, it will gradually crawl farther away, and does not like to play with you, which is also one of the manifestations of the Brazilian turtle's dislike of the owner, at this time, the owner needs to pay attention to the patient and carefully raise the Brazilian turtle.

The above is the interpretation of the behavior related to the performance of the Brazilian turtle that hates the owner, like the Brazilian turtle that has just been bought, because it is in an unfamiliar stage with the main knowledge of the sailor, so it is not recommended to touch it. The right way is to get acquainted with it slowly, so that it can sense your liking and take care of it. It should be placed on the ground with a relatively flat hail, and play with it to slowly enhance the relationship.

Appropriately reduce the breeding space, and affect the growth of the Brazilian turtle through diet, temperature and water quality, so that the Brazilian turtle does not grow, but it is also easy to affect the life span of the Brazilian turtle, so it is recommended to raise the Brazilian turtle scientifically. If you want to raise a Brazilian turtle that is not large, you can appropriately reduce the breeding space and limit the growth momentum of the Brazilian turtle through the breeding environment. Diet, temperature, and water quality are also often affected to limit the growth of Brazilian turtles.

However, it restricts the growth of the Brazilian turtle and will also affect its lifespan, so it is not recommended to force the growth of the Brazilian turtle. In this regard, they are usually fed with turtle food, and occasionally fed with some vegetables, wild sunberries or meat in a few cases to avoid malnutrition.

Of course, the feeding water temperature is the key, and it must be controlled at about 23 28, otherwise once the water temperature is too low, it will cause the Brazilian turtle to enter early hibernation. It is still necessary to change the water frequently to prevent the deterioration of the water quality and the growth of bacteria.

Turtles generally hibernate at the end of September and early October, and their eyes are naturally closed, so here are a few things you need to do now:

1. Take the turtle shell and pick it up, whether the limbs are hanging down weakly, whether the eyes are shriveled, if so, it is very likely to be dead.

2. If it can be determined that it is not dead, it can be determined from its floating on the water that it has pneumonia, and it may be in the water, with its body high and low on one side. Immediately take it indoors, raise the temperature of his living environment, let him wake up from hibernation, soak in anti-inflammatory water, and head hail. Feed vegetables and fruits and a small amount of meat.

When I first woke up, I didn't eat, and I started eating about a week to half a month.

3. How big is the turtle, if it is a young turtle, it is difficult to survive hibernation, if it is a larger turtle, there is still some hope for you to save it, in short, it is best not to let it hibernate this year, soak it in warm water after healing, and the water temperature is controlled at about 23-26 degrees.

4. Turtles may suffer from pneumonia because the water temperature is too cold when you change the water and have not been sunburned. Turtles have a smell, pay attention to wash the turtle body in time will be fine.

I wish you a good turtle, I really feel sorry to hear that a turtle is sick, so treat it well.

When the Brazilian turtle hibernates, it also has its eyes open during the day, that is, it doesn't eat, and yours has closed its eyes for a month, and it is possible to die, but you say that the limbs are half shrunk, and it is not like the symptoms of death, because the Brazilian turtle is dead, and the limbs and head are weakly drooping.

If you see if his claws and body are shriveled or shrunken, if they are, he will probably die.

When hibernating, make sure the environment is moist and do not soak in water.
